The B1G has a variety of unique and exciting games for Week 9 of the 2021 season. One of them is the expected defensive battle between #9 Iowa at Wisconsin.

Surprisingly, there is a passing touchdown in the first quarter of the game with Wisconsin getting on the board first with a 4-yard touchdown pass from quarterback Graham Mertz to tight end Jake Ferguson.

That drive took 8 plays for 65 yards and took three minutes and 59 seconds off the clock.

It is all Wisconsin in this game so far as they have outgained Iowa in total yards accounted for 129-to-12 and first downs accounted for 8-to-0 through the first quarter.

The winner will be one step closer to closing up a division title.
